Chapter 17: 17, every woman has vanity.

"Yang, this gift is too precious, I can't accept it."

Although Sun Xinyi really liked this handbag, she still felt that she couldn't accept it, after all, it was only their first meeting, and accepting such an expsive gift didn't seem appropriate.

"Xinyi, you don't need to feel any pressure, I'm just simply expressing my gratitude, there's no hidd meaning."

Without further discussion, Yang Hao directly stuffed the shopping bag with the ivory handbag into Sun Xinyi's hands.

In his mind, he thought, you're going to accept this bag today no matter what!

Otherwise, I won't be able to complete my task!

"Yang, this..."

Sun Xinyi wanted to refuse again, but Yang Hao spoke up once more, "If you really feel bad about it, th just help me lose weight for the next month. My goal is 50 pounds."

"Uh..."

"Th I'll prepare a fat-reducing lunch for you every day!"

After a momt's hesitation, Sun Xinyi responded.

"Deal!"

Yang Hao smiled and nodded.

"Thank you, Yang!"

Sun Xinyi really liked this Prada handbag, and seeing that Yang Hao gave it with such sincerity, she didn't refuse anymore.

Ding!

Congratulations, host, for completing the task [The Tycoon's Guilt].

The task reward has be issued; please go to the BYD 4S store at 3 Hanjiang Road, Jiangchg City, to collect your "BYD Tang U8."

Sure ough, after Sun Xinyi accepted the gift, the system prompt sounded.

Nice!

Yang Hao couldn't help but imagine the meme-face of an old foreign man in his mind.

This gift was totally worth it!

From that momt on, Yang Hao's view of Sun Xinyi changed.

In his eyes, she wasn't just any beautiful woman; she was a big boss that could burst out gold coins and gear!

First, the tfold cashback card burst out ,000 gold coins, and now he'd burst a Tang U8. He began to look forward to what else this big boss could burst out.

Bolli Fitness Cter.

Yu Lili and Zhou Ling were eating spicy hot pot behind the bar, and at this momt, Mg Yuyu joined them, having ordered a yellow braised chick rice.

The three wom were eating lunch while gossiping, and the topic naturally drifted to Sun Xinyi and Yang Hao.

"Lili, Lingling, you two might not have se it, but that Yang actually came on an electric bike."

"I happed to see him taking Sun Xinyi away on an electric bike wh I was teaching a class on the second floor..."

"I don't know if this man is actually poor or just pretding to be poor."

Mg Yuyu relayed the sce she had se an hour ago.

"Riding an electric bike?"

"I told you he's a delivery guy!"

Yu Lili perked up, speculating, "He probably spt all his savings to woo Sun Xinyi!"

"A hundred private lessons, thirty thousand yuan. If he's a delivery guy, it would take half a year to save that. If that's really the case, this delivery man is too infatuated!" Zhou Ling remarked with astonishmt.

"Some dogs lick so hard that they don't eat or drink just to please the goddess."

Mg Yuyu understood the psychology of these types too well; after all, there were several of them in her Weixin, who barely earn five or six thousand a month but still scrape together money to buy her private lessons while skimping on themselves.

And her method of dealing with such dogs was to keep them hanging. Whever she felt that one of them was about to give up, she would give them just ough sweet treatmt to keep them hoping.

She called this method "raising dogs"!

This was much more joyable than keeping actual pets, and importantly, it came with tangible befits.

"Ah, that poor delivery guy, I guess Sun Xinyi is just accompanying him for a meal," Zhou Ling sighed.

"A dog licker doesn't deserve sympathy!"

Mg Yuyu curled her lip; they became dogs lickers because they lusted after others' bodies, so Mg Yuyu had no sympathy for them, considering they licked with an agda.

While the three were deep in their gossip, the automatic door of the fitness cter slowly oped, and Sun Xinyi walked in from outside.

All three wom's eyes landed on her at once. Yu Lili had originally wanted to mockingly ask if she was cold on the backseat of the electric bike.

But just as she was about to speak, she saw the Prada shopping bag in Sun Xinyi's hand, her pupils slightly constricted and a shocked expression appeared on her face.

Real life isn't like Kuaiyin, where if you buy a Prada worth over twty thousand, you will be ridiculed for being too low, just a basic model, and all that. But in reality, luxury brands like Prada are guinely unaffordable for most ordinary workers.

For instance, Yu Lili's basic salary plus commission from signing up new clits amounted to a monthly income of a five thousand. She and Mg Yuyu shared an apartmt that cost two thousand eight hundred a month. Adding in utilities like water, electricity, and gas, the total rose to over three thousand. So, her monthly housing expses alone came to fifte hundred. Ϻ√ԼΞϺРƳЯ.СӨƜ

Adding another fifte hundred for food, her five-thousand salary dwindled down to two thousand. Th, with the extra expses of clothes, cosmetics, daily necessities, and assorted other costs, she would do well to save about one thousand if she scrimped and saved.

That didn't ev account for the occasional unexpected expses or the social costs like giving gifts for various occasions. And a monthly salary of five thousand was considered an average income for an ordinary worker, which made a Prada handbag worth over twty thousand truly a luxury.

"Xinyi, you're browsing Prada now, ar't you? I'm so jealous!"

Zhou Ling had naturally noticed the Prada shopping bag in Sun Xinyi's hand. She was the type with a direct and cheerful personality. She immediately put down her chopsticks and expressed her admiration.

"It was a gift from Yang."

Sun Xinyi responded indiffertly.

However, her words were like a critical hit to Yu Lili! Sёarᴄh the nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

What kind of wealthy customer had she recommded to Sun Xinyi?

A casual gift, and it's starting with Prada!

An involuntary tune popped into Yu Lili's head: "If I could start over, I would chose Li Bai..."

"What did Yang gift you?"

"Jewelry, clothes, or a bag?" Zhou Ling asked curiously.

She also voiced Mg Yuyu's concern as well; although Prada's products were all expsive, items like scarves, hats, or some accessories were relatively cheaper.

This would also reveal the extt of this Yang's wealth.

"A handbag."

Sun Xinyi reported honestly.

Girls all have their vanities, and Sun Xinyi was no exception. She knew Yu Lili harbored hostility toward her because of Xu Linxuan and that she would gossip with Mg Yuyu about her, occasionally making snide remarks.

This momt served as a sort of counterattack, especially since Yang Hao had be recommded by Yu Lili.

"Wow, it's actually a handbag! Can we take a look at it?"

"I've passed Prada several times and never dared to go in..."

There was no question that Zhou Ling was a great hype-woman. With her thusiastic promotion, the whole sce's cool factor was through the roof, leaving Sun Xinyi with no need to say anything.

Both Mg Yuyu and Yu Lili were actually quite ke on taking a look since it was from Prada.

"Let's go to the break room to check it out."

Sun Xinyi didn't refuse. Being vied was certainly a pleasurable feeling, especially since two of the three prest bore some malice towards her.

"Yeah, there's nowhere to unpack it here."

Zhou Ling nodded repeatedly. The bar had two computers and various office supplies, and the little remaining space was occupied by the takeout they ordered.

So, the four wom made their way to the break room. Sun Xinyi passed the shopping bag to Zhou Ling who eagerly took out the dust bag containing the handbag and carefully oped it to reveal the ivory- bag before the four of them.

"Wow, it's beautiful!"

"This seems to be a new model. I've se it in the store window wh I passed by Prada!"

Starlight City was nearby, and Zhou Ling oft shopped there, which is why she recognized it instantly as a new display item.

"The design is pretty nice."

Mg Yuyu complimted, though dying of jealousy on the inside, and she mtally dissed her 'plastic best frid' Yu Lili t thousand times over.

What a great customer to have recommded to Sun Xinyi. If she had be the one recommded, all the personal training sessions and the Prada handbag could've be hers.

At this time, Yu Lili was a mix of jealous and regretful. She couldn't ev bring herself to utter a word of praise and instead planned to ingratiate herself with this Yang in the future!

Sun Xinyi had swept Xu Linxuan away from her, and now she'd plan her retaliation.

"Xinyi, don't get scammed by someone!"

"Nowadays, a lot of lowlifes give fake luxury items as gifts. I suggest you go to the Prada store in Starlight City for an authticity check!"

Just th, a male's voice suddly sounded from behind the wom.

They were all too familiar with this voice—it belonged to Zhu Honggang, the head personal trainer at Bolli Fitness Cter.

He had come to the break room to grab a drink and happed to overhear their conversation. Zhu Honggang was also one of Sun Xinyi's suitors, so it naturally bothered him to hear that someone had giv her such an expsive gift.

"Xinyi, you have to be wary of these scoundrels' tricks!"

Seeing Sun Xinyi not responding, Zhu Honggang added solemnly.

"Gang, her handbag was actually bought at the Prada store in Starlight City!" Zhou Ling revealed the truth, not wanting the head personal trainer to lose face.

"Uh..."

"I see."

Zhu Honggang's mouth twitched, his pride wounded. He th tried to save face by saying, "Whether someone's sincere can't be measured by their gifts. You have to see if they truly treat you well!"

His words sounded reasonable, but of the four wom prest were naive girls. Such a cliché was too hard to swallow.

Gifts can't measure someone's sincerity, yet you don't ev bother to give one? What a joke!
